Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six – Siege: A Closed Beta Report
Writers Note: This beta was reviewed using the PlayStation 4 copy of the game. There was a time when I was actually pretty decent at FPS games: back when graphics on PC games weren’t as demanding so the variety of computers they worked on was greater, back when twitch shooting wasn’t the entire focus of gameplay, […]

SEGA has brought over Ecole Software’s anime dream team fighting mashup Dengeki Bunko: Fighting Climax to North America for the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita.
